摘要

Nutritional requirements for growth at 30 C of Leptospira pomona and L. canicola have been determined. Both pathogenic serotypes initially required bovine serum albumin (BSA) for growth in a medium (SM-4) which permitted growth of the water isolate B-16. Requirement for BSA was eliminated by (i) removing much of the apparent toxicity of free fatty acids in Tween 80 on an anion exchange column, (ii) decreasing extended lag periods observed from small inocula by incorporation of pyruvate into the medium, (iii) the addition of acetate to permit full utilization of substrate fatty acids in Tween 80, and (iv) the addition of glycerol to decrease generation times. Physiologic significance of these findings is discussed, and the possibility is suggested that apparent toxicity of fatty acids for leptospires may result from their auto-oxidation products. The resulting protein-free medium (SM-5) permitted the growth of pathogens at 30 C to high cell yields in low inocula. Highly virulent and avirulent strains from the same clone of L. canicola Moulton were used to determine additional growth requirements associated with virulence. As incubation temperatures were increased from 30 C to those of mammalian hosts, virulent cells required biotin at 35 C and higher levels of K+ and Mg2+ at 37 C. Additional Fe2+ eliminated the necessity for removing the toxicity of Tween 80 by anion exchange. Significance of these physiologic studies are discussed in relationship to virulence. The final protein-free medium (SM-6) grew highly virulent L. canicola from tissue to high yields from low inocula at 37 C with no loss in virulence over several transfers.
